Sue Cleaver has reportedly signed up for 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!'.
Sue Cleaver is off to the jungle
The 'Coronation Street' actress - who has played Eileen Grimshaw on the soap since 2002 - is looking forward to "challenging herself" when she heads Down Under next month to take part in the beloved reality show.
A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: “Sue is a very much-loved Street legend and the bosses are delighted to have her as part of the line-up this year.
“She will be a brilliant addition, and is looking forward to really pushing out of her comfort zone and challenging herself in the jungle.”
The former 'Dinner Ladies' star is expecting to be joined on the show - which is returning to Australia for the first time in three years - by Boy George, Chris Moyles, Seann Walsh, Owen Warner and Olivia Attwood, though the line-up has not officially been confirmed.
It was claimed earlier this week that Olivia - who finished third on 'Love Island' alongside ex-boyfriend Chris Hughes in 2017 - will be the first ever star of the dating show to take part in the competition, with ITV bosses hoping she'll be a hit with viewers as they are keen to secure her for more projects in the future.
An insider said: "This is a sign that the dating favourite is now so big and produces figures with such high profiles that they can no longer be dismissed.
"Olivia is already viewed as a rising star on ITV and this is likely to serve as a launchpad for potentially fronting more mainstream shows with the broadcaster."
Meanwhile, she has some history with 'I'm A Celebrity' after appearing as a special guest on spin-off show 'Extra Camp', when she had to endure Bushtucker Trials and was made to eat sheep brains.
An ITV spokesperson said: “We will announce our line up nearer transmission.”
